Geometry Transformations Matrices
1. Problem: Find the angle of rotation about the origin that maps point A(4, 5) to A'(−4, −5).
2. Explanation: Rotation about the origin by angle $\theta$ transforms point $(x, y)$ to $(x', y')$ by:
$$x' = x\cos\theta - y\sin\theta$$
$$y' = x\sin\theta + y\cos\theta$$
3. Substitute $A(4,5)$ and $A'(-4,-5)$:
$$-4 = 4\cos\theta - 5\sin\theta$$
$$-5 = 4\sin\theta + 5\cos\theta$$
4. Multiply first equation by 5 and second by 4:
$$-20 = 20\cos\theta - 25\sin\theta$$
$$-20 = 16\sin\theta + 20\cos\theta$$
5. Subtract second from first:
$$0 = 4\cos\theta - 41\sin\theta$$
6. Rearranged:
$$4\cos\theta = 41\sin\theta \implies \tan\theta = \frac{4}{41}$$
7. Check if this matches the image point. But since $A' = (-4, -5)$ is exactly $-1$ times $A = (4,5)$, this corresponds to rotation by $180^\circ$ or $-180^\circ$.
8. Therefore, the angle of rotation is $\boxed{\pm 180^\circ}$.

9. Problem: Find the image of point $P(x,y)$ under translation vector $\begin{pmatrix}m \\ n\end{pmatrix}$.
10. Explanation: Translation adds the vector to the point coordinates:
$$P'(x', y') = (x + m, y + n)$$
11. So the image is $\boxed{(x + m, y + n)}$.
---
12. Problem: Given $P(x,y)$ maps to $P'(m,n)$ under translation, find the translation vector.
13. Explanation: Translation vector is the difference:
$$\begin{pmatrix}m - x \\ n - y\end{pmatrix}$$
14. So the translation vector is $\boxed{\begin{pmatrix}m - x \\ n - y\end{pmatrix}}$.
---
15. Problem: Find the translation vector if point $(4,5)$ maps to $(6,8)$ under translation.
16. Calculation:
$$\begin{pmatrix}6 - 4 \\ 8 - 5\end{pmatrix} = \begin{pmatrix}2 \\ 3\end{pmatrix}$$
17. So the translation vector is $\boxed{\begin{pmatrix}2 \\ 3\end{pmatrix}}$.
---
18. Problem: Find coordinates of image of $A(x,y)$ enlarged about origin with scale factor $K$.
19. Explanation: Enlargement about origin scales coordinates:
$$A'(x', y') = (Kx, Ky)$$
20. So the image coordinates are $\boxed{(Kx, Ky)}$.
---
21. Problem: Find image of $A(4,5)$ enlarged by $E[(0,1), 2]$.
22. Explanation: Enlargement with center $(0,1)$ and scale factor 2:
$$A' = (0 + 2(4 - 0), 1 + 2(5 - 1)) = (8, 9)$$
23. So the image coordinates are $\boxed{(8, 9)}$.
---
24. Problem: Find matrix $B$ such that $AB = I_2$ for
$$A = \begin{pmatrix}2 & 1 \\ 3 & 4\end{pmatrix}$$
25. Explanation: $B = A^{-1}$, inverse of $A$.
26. Calculate determinant:
$$\det A = 2 \times 4 - 1 \times 3 = 8 - 3 = 5$$
27. Inverse:
$$B = \frac{1}{5} \begin{pmatrix}4 & -1 \\ -3 & 2\end{pmatrix} = \begin{pmatrix} \frac{4}{5} & -\frac{1}{5} \\ -\frac{3}{5} & \frac{2}{5} \end{pmatrix}$$
28. So,
$$B = \boxed{\begin{pmatrix} \frac{4}{5} & -\frac{1}{5} \\ -\frac{3}{5} & \frac{2}{5} \end{pmatrix}}$$
---
29. Problem: Given
$$A = \begin{pmatrix}2 & 1 \\ 5 & 3\end{pmatrix}, B = \begin{pmatrix}3 & 4 \\ 2 & 3\end{pmatrix}$$
Find matrix $C$ such that $AC = B$.
30. Explanation: Multiply both sides by $A^{-1}$:
$$C = A^{-1} B$$
31. Calculate $A^{-1}$:
$$\det A = 2 \times 3 - 1 \times 5 = 6 - 5 = 1$$
32. So,
$$A^{-1} = \begin{pmatrix}3 & -1 \\ -5 & 2\end{pmatrix}$$
33. Multiply:
$$C = \begin{pmatrix}3 & -1 \\ -5 & 2\end{pmatrix} \begin{pmatrix}3 & 4 \\ 2 & 3\end{pmatrix} = \begin{pmatrix}7 & 9 \\ -11 & -14\end{pmatrix}$$
34. So,
$$C = \boxed{\begin{pmatrix}7 & 9 \\ -11 & -14\end{pmatrix}}$$
---
35. Problem: Show that for
$$A = \begin{pmatrix}1 & 1 \\ 1 & 1\end{pmatrix}, A^2 - 2A = 0$$
36. Calculate $A^2$:
$$A^2 = A \times A = \begin{pmatrix}1 & 1 \\ 1 & 1\end{pmatrix} \begin{pmatrix}1 & 1 \\ 1 & 1\end{pmatrix} = \begin{pmatrix}2 & 2 \\ 2 & 2\end{pmatrix}$$
37. Calculate $A^2 - 2A$:
$$\begin{pmatrix}2 & 2 \\ 2 & 2\end{pmatrix} - 2 \begin{pmatrix}1 & 1 \\ 1 & 1\end{pmatrix} = \begin{pmatrix}2 & 2 \\ 2 & 2\end{pmatrix} - \begin{pmatrix}2 & 2 \\ 2 & 2\end{pmatrix} = \begin{pmatrix}0 & 0 \\ 0 & 0\end{pmatrix}$$
38. Hence, $A^2 - 2A$ is the null matrix.
---
39. Problem: Show that for
$$A = \begin{pmatrix}1 & 1 \\ 8 & 3\end{pmatrix}, A^2 - 4A = 5I$$
40. Calculate $A^2$:
$$A^2 = \begin{pmatrix}1 & 1 \\ 8 & 3\end{pmatrix} \begin{pmatrix}1 & 1 \\ 8 & 3\end{pmatrix} = \begin{pmatrix}1+8 & 1+3 \\ 8+24 & 8+9\end{pmatrix} = \begin{pmatrix}9 & 4 \\ 32 & 17\end{pmatrix}$$
41. Calculate $A^2 - 4A$:
$$\begin{pmatrix}9 & 4 \\ 32 & 17\end{pmatrix} - 4 \begin{pmatrix}1 & 1 \\ 8 & 3\end{pmatrix} = \begin{pmatrix}9 & 4 \\ 32 & 17\end{pmatrix} - \begin{pmatrix}4 & 4 \\ 32 & 12\end{pmatrix} = \begin{pmatrix}5 & 0 \\ 0 & 5\end{pmatrix} = 5I$$
42. Hence, $A^2 - 4A = 5I$ is proven.
---
43. Problem: If
$$A = \begin{pmatrix}x & 5 \\ 3 & y\end{pmatrix}, B = \begin{pmatrix}4 & 3 \\ 5 & -2\end{pmatrix}$$
and $A^t = B$, find $x$ and $y$.
44. Explanation: Transpose $A$ is
$$A^t = \begin{pmatrix}x & 3 \\ 5 & y\end{pmatrix} = B = \begin{pmatrix}4 & 3 \\ 5 & -2\end{pmatrix}$$
45. Equate elements:
$$x = 4, \quad 3 = 3, \quad 5 = 5, \quad y = -2$$
46. So,
$$\boxed{x=4, y=-2}$$
---
47. Problem: If
$$(a \, b) - (1 \, 2) = (5 \, 6)$$
and
$$(c \, d) - (3 \, 4) = (6 \, 8)$$
find $a,b,c,d$.
48. Calculate:
$$a - 1 = 5 \implies a = 6$$
$$b - 2 = 6 \implies b = 8$$
$$c - 3 = 6 \implies c = 9$$
$$d - 4 = 8 \implies d = 12$$
49. So,
$$\boxed{a=6, b=8, c=9, d=12}$$
---
50. Problem: If
$$(a \, b) - (2 \, 4) = (10 \, 12)$$
and
$$(c \, d) - (6 \, 8) = (12 \, 16)$$
find $a,b,c,d$.
51. Calculate:
$$a - 2 = 10 \implies a = 12$$
$$b - 4 = 12 \implies b = 16$$
$$c - 6 = 12 \implies c = 18$$
$$d - 8 = 16 \implies d = 24$$
52. So,
$$\boxed{a=12, b=16, c=18, d=24}$$
---
53. Problem: Given
$$A = \begin{pmatrix}3 \\ 2\end{pmatrix}, B = \begin{pmatrix}-1 \\ 4\end{pmatrix}, C = \begin{pmatrix}-3 \\ -1\end{pmatrix}$$
Find $A + 2B - 3C$.
54. Calculate:
$$2B = \begin{pmatrix}-2 \\ 8\end{pmatrix}, -3C = \begin{pmatrix}9 \\ 3\end{pmatrix}$$
55. Sum:
$$A + 2B - 3C = \begin{pmatrix}3 \\ 2\end{pmatrix} + \begin{pmatrix}-2 \\ 8\end{pmatrix} + \begin{pmatrix}9 \\ 3\end{pmatrix} = \begin{pmatrix}10 \\ 13\end{pmatrix}$$
56. So,
$$\boxed{\begin{pmatrix}10 \\ 13\end{pmatrix}}$$
---
57. Problem: Find $a,b$ if midpoint of $(a+1,1)$ and $(6,b+2)$ is $(4,2)$.
58. Midpoint formula:
$$\left(\frac{a+1+6}{2}, \frac{1 + b + 2}{2}\right) = (4,2)$$
59. Equate:
$$\frac{a+7}{2} = 4 \implies a+7=8 \implies a=1$$
$$\frac{b+3}{2} = 2 \implies b+3=4 \implies b=1$$
60. So,
$$\boxed{a=1, b=1}$$
---
61. Problem: Find other end of line segment if one end is $(4,4)$ and midpoint is $(-2,2)$.
62. Let other end be $(x,y)$.
63. Midpoint formula:
$$\left(\frac{4+x}{2}, \frac{4+y}{2}\right) = (-2, 2)$$
64. Equate:
$$\frac{4+x}{2} = -2 \implies 4+x = -4 \implies x = -8$$
$$\frac{4+y}{2} = 2 \implies 4+y = 4 \implies y = 0$$
65. So,
$$\boxed{(-8, 0)}$$
---
66. Problem: Find other end if one end is $(2,1)$ and midpoint is $(4,2)$.
67. Let other end be $(x,y)$.
68. Midpoint formula:
$$\left(\frac{2+x}{2}, \frac{1+y}{2}\right) = (4, 2)$$
69. Equate:
$$\frac{2+x}{2} = 4 \implies 2+x=8 \implies x=6$$
$$\frac{1+y}{2} = 2 \implies 1+y=4 \implies y=3$$
70. So,
$$\boxed{(6, 3)}$$
---
71. Problem: Find ratio in which point $(5,3)$ divides line segment joining $(2,3)$ and $(7,3)$.
72. Since $y$-coordinates are same, ratio $m:n$ satisfies:
$$x = \frac{m \times 7 + n \times 2}{m+n} = 5$$
73. Let ratio be $m:n = r:1$:
$$5 = \frac{7r + 2}{r+1} \implies 5(r+1) = 7r + 2 \implies 5r + 5 = 7r + 2 \implies 2r = 3 \implies r = \frac{3}{2}$$
74. So ratio is $3:2$.
---
75. Problem: Find ratio in which point $(2,b)$ divides line segment joining $(-4,3)$ and $(6,3)$.
76. Since $y$-coordinates are same, ratio $m:n$ satisfies:
$$x = \frac{m \times 6 + n \times (-4)}{m+n} = 2$$
77. Let ratio be $m:n = r:1$:
$$2 = \frac{6r - 4}{r+1} \implies 2(r+1) = 6r - 4 \implies 2r + 2 = 6r - 4 \implies 4r = 6 \implies r = \frac{3}{2}$$
78. So ratio is $3:2$.
---
79. Problem: Find ratio in which X-axis divides line joining $(2,-4)$ and $(-3,6)$.
80. Let ratio be $m:n = r:1$ and point on X-axis has $y=0$.
81. Using section formula for $y$:
$$0 = \frac{m \times 6 + n \times (-4)}{m+n} = \frac{6r - 4}{r+1}$$
82. Solve:
$$6r - 4 = 0 \implies 6r = 4 \implies r = \frac{2}{3}$$
83. So ratio is $2:3$.
---
84. Problem: Find equation of line with slope $-3$ passing through $(2,-2)$.
85. Use point-slope form:
$$y - y_1 = m(x - x_1)$$
$$y + 2 = -3(x - 2)$$
$$y + 2 = -3x + 6$$
$$3x + y = 4$$
86. So equation is $\boxed{3x + y = 4}$.
---
87. Problem: Find coordinates where line $4x + 5y = 20$ intersects X-axis and Y-axis.
88. For X-axis, $y=0$:
$$4x = 20 \implies x=5$$
89. For Y-axis, $x=0$:
$$5y = 20 \implies y=4$$
90. So,
$$A = (5,0), B = (0,4)$$
---
91. Problem: Given $AP = BP$ and $P=(4,3)$, find coordinates of $A$ and $B$.
92. Since $AP=BP$, $P$ is midpoint of $AB$.
93. Let $A=(x_1,y_1)$ and $B=(x_2,y_2)$.
94. Midpoint $P$:
$$\left(\frac{x_1 + x_2}{2}, \frac{y_1 + y_2}{2}\right) = (4,3)$$
95. Given $A$ and $B$ lie on axes, so $A=(a,0)$ and $B=(0,b)$.
96. Substitute:
$$\frac{a + 0}{2} = 4 \implies a=8$$
$$\frac{0 + b}{2} = 3 \implies b=6$$
97. So,
$$A = (8,0), B = (0,6)$$
---
98. Problem: Find $p$ if distance from $(2,-3)$ to line $px - 4y + 7=0$ is 5.
99. Distance formula:
$$d = \frac{|p(2) -4(-3) + 7|}{\sqrt{p^2 + (-4)^2}} = 5$$
100. Simplify numerator:
$$|2p + 12 + 7| = |2p + 19|$$
101. Equation:
$$\frac{|2p + 19|}{\sqrt{p^2 + 16}} = 5$$
102. Square both sides:
$$(2p + 19)^2 = 25(p^2 + 16)$$
103. Expand:
$$4p^2 + 76p + 361 = 25p^2 + 400$$
104. Rearrange:
$$0 = 25p^2 - 4p^2 - 76p + 400 - 361$$
$$0 = 21p^2 - 76p + 39$$
105. Solve quadratic:
$$p = \frac{76 \pm \sqrt{(-76)^2 - 4 \times 21 \times 39}}{2 \times 21} = \frac{76 \pm \sqrt{5776 - 3276}}{42} = \frac{76 \pm \sqrt{2500}}{42}$$
106. So,
$$p = \frac{76 \pm 50}{42}$$
107. Two solutions:
$$p = \frac{126}{42} = 3, \quad p = \frac{26}{42} = \frac{13}{21}$$
108. So,
$$\boxed{p = 3 \text{ or } \frac{13}{21}}$$
